Abstract In the Central IranianVolcanic Belt (CIVB), north-west of Shahre-Babak, in the area of Javazm, Dehaj and khabr, about 60 subvolcanic porphyritic dacitic to rhyodacitic domes (1-10 km2) are intruded into a variety of rock sequences from Mesozoic to Early Miocene in age. These rocks are a part of Dehaj-Sardoieh belt. The CIVB contains intrusive and extrusive rocks of Cretaceous-Quaternary age. Geochemical data indicate that the subalkalic dacitic to rhyodacitic rocks have an adakitic composition with Na2o/K2o (1.8-3.16), high Sr (584-1750 ppm), Mg # = (0.18-0.57) and low Y (7-10 ppm), low Yb (0.65-1.29 ppm), and low HREE. Fractionated REE patterns, (Ce/Yb)N = 10-27, absence of negative Eu anomal, low content of Y, Nb, Ti, and high Sr/Y (74-265) and (Ce/Yb)N ratios suggest that the source was probably hydrous garnet-amphibolite or amphibole-eclogite, possibly generated during subduction of the Neo-Tethyan oceanic slab beneath the Central Iran microplate.The adakitic volcanism was followed by eruption of alkaline magmatism in this area. Slab melting occurred after cessation of subduction, possibility from the collision. Transtensional tectonics accompanied by a locally extensional stress regime account for magma genesis and ascent.

[25] suggested that post-suturing magmatic activity along the Sanandaj-Sirjan zone and CIVB can be attributed to slab break-off.

The most intense eruptions were during the post collisional stage, which led to the formation of great volcanoes like Mosahim, Madvar, Aj Bala, Aj Pain and other volcanoes in this region. The great diversity of Neogene to Quaternary magmatic rocks, from andesitic, dacitic to rhyodacitic subvolcanic domes and extending for more than 150 km, are of interested due to their specific conditions of formation and spatial and temporal relation with other magmatic rocks. The dacitic volcanism of late Pliocene and Pleistocene in this area was followed by alkaline volcanism in Plio-Quaterner [33]. A conspicuous characteristic of this phase is the contemporaneous eruptions of mafic alkaline melts including melafoidites and alkali basalts [7-29]. The temporal and spatial Figure 1.

The aims of this paper are (1) to present chemical characteristics of the dacitic to rhyodacitic magmatism in central Iran, (2) to suggest the conditions of their genesis, and (3) to discuss geodynamic environment in which they could have formed.

Material and Methods

2.1. Regional Setting The investigated areas are situated at the Central Iranian Volcanic Belt (CIVB), north west of Shahre- Babak City (Fig. 1-3). These regions are situated between fault and Nain-Baft fault (Shahre- Figure 2. Tectonic map of the studied area that show by a Babak fault) (Fig. 2). In this area, numerous (n~50) square, studied area bounded by two main faults and fractures subvolcanic domes are intruded in to the volcanic [19,20].

In some samples, plagioclase phenocrysts are mantled by a rim devoid of inclusions, whereas the core is rich in inclusions. Hornblende occurs as the main ferromagnesian phenocryst (up to 2 mm) in andesite and dacite and varies from green to brown in color. Hornblend often opassitezed and change to opaque and iron oxide. In some samples, accumulation of hornblende led to formation of glomeroporphyric texture. The groundmass is composed of plagioclase and hornblend as the main minerals, with apatite, biotite, quartz and iron oxides as accessory minerals.

Also the parallel nature of the REE patterns established that the residues had a big partition coefficient for these Tholeiitic elements, and consequently that they were grant. Low abundances of HREE in adakitic magma reflect retention of these elements in residual garnet in the partially melted subducted slab amphibol-eclogite.

The issue of slab anatexis as a globally important process was emphasized by [15] and [21] who demonstrated a connection between subduction of young oceanic crust and production of intermediate to felsic igneous rocks which bear the signature of a garnetiferous residuum. Such magmatic rocks are compositionally similar to Tertiary lavas on Adak Island in the Aleutian arc which were identified as products of slab melting by [35].
